HOLIDAY REPORT, part one

-- Thanks to a snow storm in NYC, It took me 28 hours of travel, but I finally made it back to 'Murica and the good old Salt Lake City!

-- All TWELVE members of The Tribe are reunited for the next few weeks! #partypartyparty

-- Holiday cheer is in the air! Stockings on the mantle, presents under the christmas tree, christmas songs on repeat, and lights adorn the house.

-- Survived getting my wisdom teeth removed..

-- It hasn't stopped snowing all day, I am stoked about it.

-- Steadily eating my way through my  "America Food Bucketlist", Thai food is next.

Life is good!

Welcome to the dog days of summer in Salt Lake City. 
▷ 100 + degrees, every day 
▷ popsicles + shaved ice + ice cream sandwiches + otter pops.. sometimes all in an hour. 
▷ blue skies + green trees + playgrounds + pools 
▷ friends + family 
▷ and of course.. chalk!

How time flies! I am nearly finished with my first week back in Lugano, Switzerland and although I am excited for the adventures that lay ahead, I can't help but find myself reflecting on what an incredible month I had at home in Salt Lake City. There is no way I could include all the pictures and stories I have to share after a month at home. But here is my attempt at some sort of recap. 

During my 33 days home I drove up and down Little Cottonwood Canyon no less than 10x. I can't complain about the view out the car window.  

Highlight: double rainbow across the canyon

Stockings, lights at Temple Square, a nativity, and Santa. Best Christmas ever! 

Highlight: Maxwell wearing his Santa suit I bought him in Switzerland for a week straight

Christmas Day skiing! Midway down our last run clouds engulfed the base of Alta as a massive storm blew in. 

Highlight: Gorgeous blue skies 

Weekend up at Heber! We celebrated Dad's birthday with tubing, board games, and a steak dinner. Highlight: organizing a 10 person tubing formation.
